Check if Specific Hotfix installed on a Collection – SCCM

Recently we got a request from our Platform Team whether we can fetch any report from System Center Configuration Manager to check if specific Hotfixes installed on all the servers managed by them.

After further discussion, we got to know that they wanted to check all the systems that miss the WannaCry related hotfixes.

Let’s create the report using Microsoft SQL Server Report Builder. Before that, we need to leverage the Win32_QuickFixEngineering WMI class otherwise we will not get the data in our report. This WMI class is specifically designed to reflect the presence of all system-wide updates deployed. We also have an added advantage that this class specifically excludes any update supplied by Windows Update – so the result set we get from this WMI class comes pre-filtered with just the supplemental data we want. You can read more about the Win32_QuickFixEngineering class here.
